Anybody want to play a worldbuilding game?

So instead of working on my research or putting even more work than I've been into my contingency plan (http://www.keepthelightson.net/) I'm yielding to my new recreational wiki-ing addiction and offering to start up a wiki game (NOT on the above server, that one must stay on topic).
Here's how it works...

Briefly, each player is a reporter who is trying to report imaginary news stories and keep them both in themselves plausible and consistant with previous news stories. After each round of news stories the year is incremented and the next round begins. The outcome of the game is a timeline of an imaginary future written by the participants.
At the beginning of that writeup there is a reference to another wiki game, which I think should be played after the first one.

Here the players are encyclopedia authors writing articles about the imaginary universe (the same one for which the timeline already exists if the previous game was played) and cross referencing each other.
So, how about it? Who's interested?
